Title: Mediaplayer That Utilizes Libmodplugin?
Post by: Jon_J on July 06, 2006, 02:27:17 am

I did a search here and "libmodplugin" doesn't return any hits.
Google shows this is used on Linux to enable playback of *.mod, *.xm, *.s3m modules with a mediaplayer.
I found libmodplugin 2.0.2 that is intended to be used with opie-mediaplayer1
I installed it and it places these files in my /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/codecs/
libmodplugin.so
libmodplugin.so.1
libmodplugin.so.1.0
libmodplugin.so.1.0.0

Are there ANY mediaplayers besides opie-mediaplayer1, that can utilize these codecs?
I tried opie-mediaplayer1 in Cacko on my C3100, and it doesn't work.

I'd really like to get these modules to play on my Z
Thank you

xmms-embedded can be compiled with libmikmod support and there are few commandline/ncurses players

Where could I find the commandline/ncurses players?
Would I need ncurses libs to use these?

I don't know how to compile stuff, so xmms-embedded isn't an option.

thank you,
Jon

Finally, after 3 hours of googling for incompatable libraries, for X MultiMedia System,
(I couldn't find a required "libglib-1.2.so.0" that would install in Cacko)
I found the above at ELSI, and there are instructions to make it work on Sharp ROMs.
They fail to mention the need for libglib-1.2.so.0
This is only available in a Sharp incompatable *.ipk and is called for when "xmms-embedded-qtopia" is run at the command line.
This library will not install in it's current *.ipk version.
I cannot open these "type" of *.ipk in winrar to extract the files to my libs folder.
I do this with Sharp ROM ipks, when I only need one file from it.

I later found this:
Ysump:
http://www.killefiz.de/zaurus/showdetail.php?app=1109 (http://www.killefiz.de/zaurus/showdetail.php?app=1109)
It includes instructions as to install, (no ipk).
It also includes libmikmod.so.2.0.4
This plays my mods, s3m and xm files perfectly.  

This works in Cacko/Sharp.
